REAL ESTATE<br />
Private, peaceful<br />
Purau rural retreat<br />
52 Purau Port Levy Road, Purau Valley, Lyttelton <strong>Harbour</strong><br />
Price: $850,000 plus GST if any<br />
2 bedrooms | 1 bathroom | 2 living rooms | 13ha | Listing Number: 9736<br />
Seldom do properties such as this come<br />
to the market but retiring vendors of 30<br />
years have decided the time has come.<br />
This is a wonderful location, peaceful<br />
and private with wonderful bird song. Set<br />
on 13.1369 hectares or 32.5 acres approx.<br />
this charming 100m 2 home is both easycare<br />
and warm. Commanding beautiful<br />
views of the Purau Valley, Purau <strong>Bay</strong> and<br />
Mt Evans, if you are looking for peace and<br />
privacy then this one could be for you.<br />
Set well off the road the house has<br />
two double bedrooms, two living areas,<br />
lovely decking and one bathroom. North<br />
East facing and sheltered with a garage/<br />
workshop adjacent to the house. The<br />
garden is easy care and the land is a<br />
mixture of pasture in five paddocks for<br />
grazing, some bush and about 250 approx.<br />
30 year old pine trees ready for harvesting.<br />
The property is well fenced and has an<br />
excellent water supply, a small stream and<br />
a natural pond. Further down the driveway<br />
there is a set of yards, a four bay implement<br />
shed, a tractor shed with high stud and a<br />
large high stud workshop with three phase<br />
power. There is also a semi derelict house<br />
from about the 1930s on the property.<br />
This is an idyllic location and perfect for<br />
a retiring farmer, someone wanting to get<br />
into the firewood business or someone with<br />
a portable mill to make use of all the trees.<br />
Purau <strong>Bay</strong> is approximately 30 minutes’<br />
drive from Christchurch, making it a<br />
highly desirable destination as it is so<br />
useable being close to Christchurch.<br />
Properties in this lovely valley and by such<br />
a safe swimming beach are defying all the<br />
odds and selling fast generally as they come<br />
up very seldom.<br />
Excellent swimming, boating, walking<br />
and stunning sunsets on the hills, quick<br />
and easy access to Lyttelton via the<br />
Diamond <strong>Harbour</strong> ferry (approx. five<br />
mins), local shops, cafés and bar make this<br />
a fun filled place to visit. Properties here<br />
make an excellent investment and Purau<br />
<strong>Bay</strong> and valley is a truly magical place to<br />
live.<br />
